Adoption is one thing but it says nothing about our overburdened foster care system. Aside from that I find it ironic that the pro life crowd is mostly made up of republicans that actively stand against programs such as free and reduced lunch, better and more efficient public education spending, government backed daycare, universal healthcare, more expansive paternity leave for both mothers and fathers ect that would actually benefit these children. The inability to properly care for a child is one of the biggest reasons people want an abortion in the first place. 

Well there are probably people who are pro life that are against the things you mentioned but from my experience most people who are pro life just think that life is sacred period.

And that's part of the problem. They'll do everything to make sure that baby is born but once it's out they're on their own. Our foster care to prison pipeline is ridiculous but I don't see many pro lifers trying to do anything to improve the actual lives of these children. They're not pro life they're pro birth because birth is sacred but more often than not these people are voting against programs that would positively impact the lives of unaborted children.
